Reverse: Jeff

Problem

Jeff came to see Dr. Saltzman after his annual medical exam with his primary care doctor. His blood pressure was elevated, despite his medication, and his weight was up. He also struggled with lower back pain, elevated blood pressure, cholesterol dysfunction, and back pain, all caused by inflammation.

Get More Oxygen

Dr. Saltzman suggested whole-body oxygenation combined with exercise could help many of the health problems Jeff was facing. He prescribed a program that involved exercising with oxygen (EWOT), intermittent fasting, Prolozone injections, and specialized work to address Jeff’s lower back tightness. Ultimately, the synergy of all these treatments transformed his life, but EWOT produced the most encouraging benefits early in the process. Jeff worked out on the EWOT treadmill at least three times a week and used specialized saunas post-workout to further reduce his back tightness. After only two months, Jeff began to feel a general increase in energy and a significant reduction in pain. Working out with extra oxygen helped his body clear waste from chronically inflamed areas, leading to pain reduction without side effects.

Conclusion

After several months, Jeff was able to stop his blood pressure medication and had greatly improved energy. He purchased equipment to incorporate oxygen therapies into his home training. He is a great example of using natural therapies to restore health instead of simply medicating symptoms and coping with side effects.

Reverse: Chris

Problem

Chris had a history of hypertension, obesity, and mild sleep apnea. He was active years before, but had no current exercise regimen. Chris also disclosed that he was having erectile dysfunction, a common side effect from the antihypertensive medications he was prescribed by another physician.

Create a Foundation

Dr. Saltzman first prescribed targeted nutrition and detoxification for Chris. To get him moving, Chris started gentle stretching and progressed to hot yoga. The hot yoga was effective and helped Chris to sweat regularly for the first time in years. Dr. Saltzman added sessions in an ozone steam sauna to this gentle training to support his flexibility and reduce muscular pain.

Reach for the Sky

After four months of foundational care, Chris was ready to exercise on his own. Dr. Saltzman started him on a cyclic exercise program and Chris quickly felt better, had more energy, and his weight improved. In consultation with his primary care physician and cardiologist, Dr. Saltzman made reductions in his antihypertensive medications. After a few sessions with a chiropractor, he started exercise-induced growth hormone interval training. Chris was shocked at how challenging this type of exercise was. It took him almost ten weeks to get to the point where he could complete the workout.

Conclusion

Interval training transformed Chris’ body. He lost fat around his middle and developed a much more muscular physique, likely due to the release of his body’s own supply of growth hormone. He felt good and enjoyed his improved health. After a year of treatment, he stopped taking both blood pressure medications and his sleep apnea had improved significantly.
